PlIILADEUTIIA, June 24, 1S7G.
Extensive preparations for the celebration
an the fourth of July are being made through
out the city, and, from present prospects, the
crowds, dost end heat w ill be unparalleled.
It has boon suggested that the President of
the I’nited States shall on that day fire a Bod-
nun Gun by electricity, and that the gun
shall he connected by wires with all the can
non that will on that day be fixed in the dif
ferent cities and towns throughout the coun
try, in tliis way the same touch will send the
cc < c;r c fluid to a thousand or fift.< enhundrid
cannon and .tlieie will be one giaud simulta
neous leport. A still more unique suggestion
is to have ihe initiatory discharge effected
thiough solar agency. If the day should he
clear lenses might bo arranged so as to ignite
piirnii.g at n-ooti precisely, aud thus the mys
terious force of nature which the last ceutu-
ry h as utilized, would c..nvey to the nation,
in an instant, the intelligence that tho coun-
-iv as represented in this city is celebrating
the c mpiction of ilie first century of Ameri
can Independence.
There has been a iaige inercaso in the num
ber of visitors during tho past week, and
many thii k that the h ng longed for “centennial
rush" has at last set in. The number of pay
ing visitors that haft entered the gates since
May thu 10th is about ono million and tho re
ceipts have been nearly $.>00,000. Tho ex
penses, however, arc still very heavy, per
haps not less than ten thousand per day,
tney will soon he reduced by tho discharge of
a large number of laborers who are still em
ployed in construction and repair within the
grounds.
On last Thursday the Singer Sewing Ma
chine works at Elizabeth, New Jersey, had a
novel advertisement in the attendance ol
thiee thousand six hundred and thirty-one
(3,GUI) of their employees -, they came to the
exhibition on four trains ; all of them landed
from the cars at the entrance gates, their pas
sage to and fro, as well as their admission fee
h. ing paid l.y the company which employs
them. They wero men, women, boys aud
gills, a line and well to-do looking body of
people, (Ucorat* il w ith red badges, aud form
ed a n.ost plearing spectacle as they wander
ed in ptoups among the exhibits in tho differ
ent buildings, or improvised pic nics ia the
groves and guldens within tlie enclosure.
On entering the Main Building from the
w.-st end one of the liisi exhibits that attracts
the attention of the visitor, bordering, as i!
.does, on the m lin aisle, is that of CbiJi. Near
the eturacoof tha Chilian section is a circular
pavilion in which i3 a pyramid of silver-hear
ing ores surmounted by a large stuffed con
dor. Around tho sides of tho paviliou are
glass show-cases, filled with silver ores said
to he valued at $25,000. It forms a large
mass, in which there is want of scientific ar
rangement, hut the richness of the specimens
and the rare crystaiine forms of some of them
makes this collection of great interest to the
mineralogist. It contains the finest spec
mens of red or arsenical silver cn stalft that
have over been found. This form of silver is
called by mineralogists proustile. Tho crys
tabs are rhnmboidal in shape. Good spcci
mens were formerly found in the Harlz moun
tains of Germany hut they are now very rare.
Tbo best speeimips of this collection is val
ued by the owner at $4,000, not that it eon
tains that quantity of puio silver, hut on ac
count ol its value as a specimen.
The agrivuitural exhibit of Chili is contain
ed in two show .cases and consists of all the
grains grown in this country, and a variety of
vegetables, herbs, nuts, fibers and canned
fruits. The industrial display is made up
chiefly of shoes iu leather and satin, skeins ol
silk, blankets, embroideries, thaw Is and scarfs
There are also some very creditable specimens
of ornamental book bindery, a very handsome
alabaster table, and a hi ouzo life size east
a hoy, so good a work of art would not be
out of place in Memorial lluli.
The displays of any of the -outh American
countries are of course eclipsed when coinpar
ed with those of tho great pow ers under the
same roof, hut those of us who have been
accustomed to look with pity and half eon
tempt upon the petty struggling South Amer
lean lb publics, whose fate and history huv
becu eternal revolution, will he most surpris
ed at tho powerful though dormant nature
sinews of the country, aud not a little surpiis
ed at what has been accomplished for indus
try, science and art, iu the teeth of adverse
circumstances. 1 ifyink wo will pave to di
vest ourselves of the picturesque impression
that life in South America consists in danciu
thu balero, thrummiug tho guitar and lighting
cocks. Wbeu we lake iuto consideration tho
wouderful undeveloped natural resources of
the country it seems quite as probable that
the sceptro of the Western Hemisphere may
some day pass from the Gulled States to South
America, as that it way bo transferred froip
Euglaud to Jjow Zealand, as hinted in tho
gloomy augury cf the least gioorny of histori
ans.
Brazil has the finest display of any of these
countries, and her show derives additional
eclat from the presence and popularity of her
emperor. Dom I’edro spends considerable
time upon tbo grounds aud is very careful
aud systematic in 1.ia inspection of the par
ticular exhibits iu which he is interested. On
Friday he devoted four hours to a minute in
spection of portions of the United States gov
ernment building ; tho goological, cthnologi
cal and educational departments were sever
ally visited any mauy of the objects were ex
amined iu detail and with grpitii cqre, especi
ally tho photographs of geologipal surveys,
Which his majesty examined very critically
The Pateut ulliee publications, tho model of
eottou gin, and tbo Agricultural Department
with its graius, fruits, native woods and fishes
were objects of careful scrutiny.
The Brazilian Emperor has issued invita
lions to a number of gentlemen representing
foreign governments at the exhibition to at
tend conversations, to be held at his rooms in
tho Continental Hotel, upon tho subject of tbo
DEMOCRATICMPLATFORM.
We, tho delegates of the Democratic party
of the United States in National Convention as
sembled, do hereby declare the administration
»f-tbe Federal Government to be TO* brgeut
need of immediate reform, and do hereby en
join upon tbe nominees of this Convention and
of tho Democratic party iu each State, a zeal
ous effort and co-operation to this eud, aud do
hereby appeal to our fellow citizons of every
former political connection to undertake with
us tho fiist and most pressing patriotic duty
for tho Democracy of the whole country.
We do here reaffirm our faith in the perma
nency of the Federal Union, our devotion to
the Constitution of the United States, with its
amendments universally accepted, as a final
settlement of tbo controversies that engender
ed civil war, and do hereby record our stead
fast confidence in t'uo perpetuity of Bepubli-
can self government.
In the absolute acquiescence in the will of
the majority—tho vital principle cf tho repub
lic ; in tliu supremacy of the civil over tbe
military authority; in tbe total separation of
Chutch and State, for tho sako alike of
vi! and religious freedom ; in the equality of
all citizens before just laws of their own cn-
sentient; in the liberty of individual conduct
uuvexed by sumptuary laws; in the faithful*
education of tho rising generation, that they
nay preserve, enjoy aud transmit these best
conditions of human happiness and bopo, we
behold the noblest products/j^f a hundred years
of changeful history ; hut while upholding the
bond of our Union and tho great character of
these, our rights, it behooves a free people
to practice also that eternal vigilance which
the price of liberty.
Beform h necessary to rebuild and establish
tho hearts of tho whole people the Union
eleven years ago happily rescued from the
danger of a corrupt centralism, which, after
inflicting upon ten States the rapacity of car
pet hag tyiannies, has honcycomed tha offices
of the Federal Government itself with incapa
city, waste and fraud, iufccted States and uiu-
icipalitics w ith the contagion of misrule, and
K'kcd fast tho prosperity of an industrious
people in tbo paralysis of hard times.
Beform is necessary to establish a sound
currency, restore tho public credit and main
tain the national honor. Wo denounce the
failure for all these eleven years to make good
the promise of the legal teuder notes which
are a changing standard of valuo, in the hands
of tho people, aud tho nun-payment cf which
is a disregard of tho plighted faith of tho nation.
Wo denounce the improvidence which in
eleven years of peace, has takeu Irom the peo
ple, in Federal taxes, thirteen times the whole
amount of the legal notes and squandered four
mes this sum in useless expenses without ac
cumulating any reserve for their redemption.
We deuuunco the ttuaucial imbecility and
immorality of that party which during eleven
oars of peace, has made no advance toward
resumption, hut instead, has obstructed re
sumption by wasting our resources aud ex
hausting all our surplus income, and while an
nually profussiug to intend a speedy return to
specie payment, has annually enacted fresh
indrauecs thereto, aud as such a biudiance
wo denounce the resumption clause of tho act
of 1S75, and we hero demand its repeal.
We demand a judicious system of prepara
tion by public economies, by official retrench
mentsand by wise finance, which shall onablo
tbe nation to assure the wbolo world of its per
fect ability and its perfect readiness to meot
ny of its promises, at the call of tho creditor
entitled to payment. We believe such a sys
tern well devised and above all entrusted to
competent bands for execution, creating at no
tiino an artificial scarcity of currency and at
no time alarming tho publlic mind into a with-
irawal of that vaster machinery of credit, by
which ninety live per cent, of all business
transactions are performed, a system open to
the public and inspiring general confidence,
would, from the day of its adoption, briug
healing on its wing to all our jarrassed indus
tries aud set in motion tho wheels of com
merce, manufactures and tho mechanical arts,
restore employment to labor and renew, iu
all its natural sources, ibe prosperity of the
people.
Beform is necessary In the sum aud mode of
Federal taxation, to the end that capital be
set free from distrust and labor lightly bur
dened.
We denounce the present tariff, levied upon
nearly four thousand articles as a master piece
of injustice, inequality and false pretence. It
yields a dwindling, not a yearly risiug reve
nue ; it has impoverished many industries to
subsidize a few ; it prohibits imports that
might purchase the products of ^moriean la
lior; it has degraded American commerce (root
the first to an inferior rank upon thu high scasi
it has cut dow n thu scales of American manu
faclures at home and abroad aud depleted tho
returns «f American agiiculture, an iudustry
followed by half our people ; it costa tho peo
pie five times more than it produces to th
Treasury ; it obstructs tho processes of pro
duclion and wastes tho fruits of labor; it pro
motes fraud, and fosters smuggling ; onriches
dishonest officials and bankrupts honest tner-
chunts.
We demand Ihqt al) custom-house taxation
shall bo ouly for revenue.
H dorm is necessary in the scale of public
expense. Federal, State and municipal. Our
Federal taxation has swollen from sixty mil
lions in gold, in 18UO, to four hundred aud fif-
y millions in currency, in 1870, and our ag
gregate taxation from ono hundred and eigh
ty four millions in gold, in ISGO, to seveu bun
dred and thirty millions in purrenpy. in ldfO,
or iu qi;b decade from less than five dollars
pur head, to more than eighteen dollars per
head. Simla the peace the people have paid
to their tax gatherers more than thrice tbe
snru of tbo National debt, and more than
twice that sum for tbe Federal Government
alone. We demand a vigorous frugality in
every department, from every officer of the
Government.
Reform is necessary to put a stop to the
profligate waste of public lands and their di
version from actual settlers, by tho party in
power, which has squandered two hundred
millions of acres upon railroads alone, and out
of more than thrice that aggregate, disposed
of less thr.u a sixth directly to tillers of tbe soil.
Reform is necessary to porrect the omissions
of tbe Ifepubllcpn Congress and errors of oar
treaties and our diplomacy, which have strip
ped our fellow citizens of foreign birth and
kindred race, reoroaalug tbe Atlantic, of the
shield of American citizenship, and bavo ex
posed our brethren of the Pacific coast to tbe
incursions of a race not sprung from the same
great parent stock, and, in fact, now by law

a progressive civilization, nor exercised in

tarian strife in respect to the public schools,
of which tbo establishment and support belong
exclusively to tho several States, and which
the Democratic party has cherished from their
foundation and resolved to maintain without
partiality of preference for any class, sect or
creed aud without contributing from tho
Treasnry to any; tho false issue by which they
seek to light anew the dying embers of sec
tional bate between kindred peoples, once un
naturally estranged, but now reunited in ono
indivisible republic and a common destiny.
Reform ia necessary in tho civil service. Ex
perience proves that an efficient, aud econom
ical conduct of tho governmental business is
not possible, if ils civil service bo subject to
change at every election ; bo a prizo fought
for the baliot-box, be * brief reward of party
zeal instead of posts of honor assigned for
proved competency and held for fidelity in
tho public employ ; that tho dispensing of
patrona&s fshouljn^Mat bo -a tax up
on the timo of all our ambition. Hero again
the professions, falsified in the performance,
ittest that the party in power can work out
no practical or salutary reform.
Raform is necessary, even more in the high
er grades of public service. The President,
Vice President, Judges, Senators, Represen
tatives, Cabinet officers—theio and all others
in authority are the pooplo’s sorvants. Their
offices are not a private parquislte. They are a
public trust. When the annals of this repub
lic show the disgrace and consure of a Vice
President, a late Speaker of the House of
Representatives marketing his rulings as pre
siding officor ; threo Senators profiting secret
ly by their votes as law makers ; five chair
men of tbo lcadiug committees of tho late

Tho reading was frequently interrupted by
applause. The denunciation of tbo resump

the weeping mourners on the *‘ lone rock »y the sea,” warn

Knowing that he had hut a short time to live, he requested
liis friends to carry him home, 'l'he request was complied
with, and on the morning of the 21st of June he, in company
with a sister aim brother-in-law, left Sapelo Island lor the
home in Ogle thorps comity. They had gone as far as Bruns
wick, when tie became exceedingly weak aud was carried to
a hotel in the city. He remarked that “ he was dying,” and
iu a lew menicuts thereafter tie expired.
Iu him all that was noble urn! all tlwt Was respectable, wat
most happily combined. A manly and uiteUwTual fac
